Chapter 306: A lifesaver

After the Bobcats won away to the Bulls, the total score of the two teams has reached 2-1, and the Bobcats have taken a big lead. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

With the end of the game, the NBA league also issued a one-game ban for Bulls center Noah's malicious foul on Chen Mo during the game.

The two big losses clearly showed the Bulls' shortcomings in strength, and now they have lost their main center.

Even the hard-mouthed Chicago media couldn't find any reason this time.

"Is there anything else that can be done to save the Chicago Bulls?"

This is a post from a fan on the official Bulls forum. In today's era of the Internet, the speed of information dissemination and collection is unimaginable.

There are a lot of fans who made a move, and some people say that maybe Chen Mo can only be banned for four games, and the Chicago Bulls can turn defeat into victory.

The Bulls only need to win three more games to advance, so why ban Chen Mo for four games?

Because Noah is still banned for one game, the fan believes that only the Bulls in full state can beat the Bobcats without Chen Mo.

For that reason, this man may not be a Bulls fan, he looks more like a Bobcat fan.

Not to mention the widespread discussion among fans, ESPN actually did a show on the "Basketball Frontline" program, which was titled "What else can be done to save the Chicago Bulls?"

The guest invited to this episode of the show was the first thousand-win coach in NBA history, the old Nelson, known as the mad scientist.

Old Nelson came out to do the show this time, maybe the mad scientist has some new ideas, and wants to use this platform to express his opinion.

Perhaps among the thousands of unreliable comments on the Internet, Nelson's method seems to be the most practical.

"It's a way of playing that excites the crowd and excites the fans. I'm glad that this league has that style of play and they have a guard who can pass the ball quickly and share the ball, which is great. Their tactical switch based on Jack Chen's individual abilities is dazzling. ”

"Seeing a player like Jack Chan makes me want to go out and continue coaching. If it had been me when Larry was out of class, I think I would have agreed to coach. He's a fun player, it's a lot of fun. ”

"But if I'm Charlotte's opponent, I think the most important thing to do is to interrupt their rhythm. ”

"Charlotte's style of play needs to be consistent, but it also needs momentum and emotion to interrupt their emotions. If they can't get up and gradually wear out this emotion, the power of their fast attack will be greatly reduced. ”

Old Nelson's words are almost a sentence to wake up the dreamer, as a loyal viewer of the basketball frontline, Thibodeau will watch the live broadcast of almost every episode of the show as long as he is free. Otherwise, he will definitely find another time to watch the recording.

He thinks that watching some basketball shows is a kind of relaxation, and sometimes he can find some inspiration in them.

Nelson Sr.'s words gave him exactly this kind of inspiration.

Thibodeau slapped his thigh and shouted, "That's right!"

"Chop !!"

Thibodeau off the TV and Nelson Sr. on the TV shouted the word almost at the same time.

As the originator of the shark-cutting tactic, Nelson Sr. has the most special understanding and application of this tactic.

"It may seem silly to send someone to the free throw line, but it's certainly the most effective tactic when the opponent has a good chance of hitting this counter-attack. First of all, the opponent is likely to score on this counterattack, maybe a two-point point, but for Charlotte's team and Jack Chen's player, it is more likely to be a three-pointer. ”

"So it's very profitable to send opponents to the free throw line. Even if it's for Jack Chen, it's the only way I can think of defending his threes. ”

Let Chen Mo shoot a three-pointer, it's three points. And if he is sent to the free throw line, Chen Mo can only score two points anyway. Most importantly, it would interrupt the Bobcats' offensive rhythm and keep their emotions at the free-throw line.

Nelson Sr. gave a cursory analysis of the tactics and then introduced his own approach. It is relatively straightforward and simple, so that ordinary audiences can understand it.

Another guest who was invited was Jeff Van Gundy, who gambled red wine with the Magic, and the bald head who thought the Bulls would win the series was once again invited to the studio.

Compared to the elder Nelson, who really put forward some ideas and solutions, Van Gundy's words give the impression that the fans are right to criticize his lack of tactics.

"Chicago need to play a more suffocating defense, and their defense against Jack Chan is still too simple. In every game, they were able to make Jack Chan play very easily, as if he was taking a walk. It's a form he'll never find when he faces Miami. ”

Van Gundy said a lot, and it seemed so powerful that it seemed unbelievable, but that was only for the average viewer. A professional viewer like Thibodeau turned off the TV after Van Gundy said a few words.

"Give me a LeBron, and I'm sure I won't let Jack Chan walk around the court. Thibodeau complained secretly.

Then he began to ponder what old Nelson had just said.

Thibodeau analyzes the data while thinking about the practical application of shark-slashing tactics.

The most common outbreak of the bobcats is after the start of the third quarter, and basically from the time after a minute of the third quarter, the bobcats will enter a very fast rhythm.

"As soon as the third quarter came up, I just didn't let them get into rhythm. Thibodeau said secretly.

'We need a more ferocious start, not giving them a rhythm at the end of each quarter, keeping the score, not letting them score. ”

Thibodeau wrote a lot in his notebook, and he didn't want to be the kind of coach who regretted watching the replays after a game and kept saying, "This should be the case, the way it should be there."

But someone has become such a guy, Spohla, who is already on vacation at home, is holding his head and crying out regretfully: "We should fight like this!!"

Those who were eliminated don't have a chance, but Chicagoans still have a chance to make themselves not regretful.

There is a two-day break between G3 and G4, and on May 24, Game 4 of the Dallas Mavericks vs. Oklahoma City Thunder kicks off in Russian City.

The Thunder played ferociously from the beginning of the three games in this game, and they maintained the lead all the way.

And the Mavericks' main point guard, Jason Kidd, was cold all night, scoring a point on 0-of-6 shooting with just over two minutes left in the game.

But this guy, as a typical example of an old demon in the alliance, still doesn't have any mental fluctuations at a critical moment. He made a shot from the bottom corner, causing Westbrook to foul and make a crucial shot.

At the free throw line, Kidd Sr. scored on a free throw to tie the score at 96.

When the score was equalized, the whole Thunder seemed to panic a little, and they seemed to stop playing in an instant.

Westbrook and Durant took turns getting the ball, and then the two took turns playing iron.

In the final 32 seconds, the Mavericks hit a two-point shot from Kidd.

Ki Bu attacked in the last two attacks, helping the Mavericks from tie to overtake.

It was the only goal scored by both teams in the final two minutes, but that goal alone was almost enough to crush the Thunder.

Durant missed a three-point shot from the outside, Nowitzki grabbed the rebound, and was sent to the free throw line.

After hitting both free throws, the Mavericks' lead extended to four points. And Westbrook's last three points still bounced out of the basket. The Mavericks grabbed the rebound, and then they consumed another 6 seconds, directly consuming the game to the end.

At the last moment, Thunder was almost played and beaten by the calf. They led by 15 points at the most, but in the end they still lost the game.

Durant was photographed kicking the wall in the tunnel by reporters, but it didn't help. The young Thunder are on the edge of the cliff, and the most important thing is to be able to save their next game, which is in Dallas. The Thunder's situation is more dangerous than the Bobcats in the second round.

Chen Mo turned off the TV in the hotel, and he didn't think that Thunder still had any hope of turning the tables.

"It's 4-1 and there's no other possibility. Chen Mo turned off the TV and threw the soda can into the trash.

Jackson next to him was drinking beer, he put down the beer can, nibbled on the hamburger in his hand, and said, "How do you know, you are really a prophet?"

"It's too much worse in terms of experience, Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook aren't me!" Chen Mo sighed and said.

"Jack!" Jackson said in a rather serious tone.

Chen Mo looked back at him, thinking that something was wrong with Jackson.

Jackson slowly finished the burger, took a sip of wine, and said, "Sometimes, I really think you have something to do with God." ”

Chen Mo smiled and said, "You also think I'm God's illegitimate son?"

Jackson shook his head, then raised his middle finger at Chen Mo and said, "No, who is so good to illegitimate children!

During the two-day break, the Bobcats settled in Chicago and did not return to Charlotte, where they rented a university arena for daily training.

In the past two days, Chen Mo has not gone anywhere except for the room, the training hall and the gym of the hotel. Even Jackson was honest and didn't go out and fool around.

First, it was Sloane who strictly forbade going out to play. Second, it's because the wind in Chicago is noisy and uncomfortable, and even though it's the end of May, it's still very uncomfortable to blow. Moreover, Jackson seems to have a special dislike for Chicago, and he has never been to a Chicago nightclub every time he comes to Chicago.

"Chicago used to be full of gangs and very chaotic. Although it is much better now, the security is still poor, and the security in that kind of place is even worse, so it is better not to go. "Jackson's excuse is great, but Chen Mo always thinks that this guy has some other reason. But Jackson didn't say, he definitely wouldn't ask in detail. The main reason they came here was to compete, and Jackson didn't go to the nightclubs and stayed in the hotel to stay in shape, which must be good news!

On May 26, the fourth game between the Bulls and Bobcats finally kicked off. The most interesting part of this game is whether Thibodeau will use the shark slashing tactics that Nelson Sr. said in the basketball frontline program.

If he could use it, who would he choose to cut?

The two people who are commenting on the CCAV today are Yang Yi and Yu Jia. Zhang Li himself came to Chicago to interview Chen Mo after the game.

The ccav's tracking and interview team for the Bobcats has been there for the past few games, and Lin Wei has been interviewing Chen Mo before, but today they sent Zhang Lili as well.

Zhang Li has always wanted to settle in the United States, maybe he came to the United States this time for other things, and the interview is a task to be completed by the way!

Chen Mo met Zhang Lili before the game, he was a little taller than Chen Mo and looked very strong.

"When Nelson Sr. was doing a show on ESPN, he gave Thibodeau a call, do you know about that?"

"I know. ”

"Before, we had a reporter ask him if he would use this tactic in the game, and he said he knew, but whether it would be used depends on the situation, what are your thoughts on this?"

"He's going to use it, he couldn't help it. Noah was banned, and he couldn't do anything about it. It's a lifesaver!" Chen Mo chuckled.

Zhang Li talked to Chen Mo about tonight's game and his views on the finals.

Chen Mo was very confident, but apart from confidence, he didn't say anything to induce saliva. No matter who it was, he behaved very carefully.

At this time, the two people in the CCAV studio also knew the content of Chen Mo and Zhang Lili's interview.

Yu Jia said: "Chen Mo thinks that Xibodu will definitely use shark cutting tactics, Yang Yi, who do you think he is most likely to cut?"

At that time, when the old Nelson said this, he said that even if he looked at Chen Mo, it was cost-effective. So his target is definitely uncertain, and according to the changes in the game, it is more likely that he will cut whoever he catches. Moreover, the Bulls did not have Noah in this game, and the protection under the basket was almost blank. Boozer was blown up in the field before, and he will definitely be spared today, so Thibodeau is likely to give up this ball, and the shark slashing tactic will be used, but he will definitely keep a hand, or put some smoke to pop out, and can't let the Bobcat guess his tactics!"

And as the two chatted about this topic in the CCAV, the pace of the game was gradually approaching.

Today, the Bobcats' starting XI was the same as last time, unchanged. When the Bulls had Noah, the Bobcats dared to use this brainless lineup to face the Bulls, and they also achieved good results. Now that they don't have Noah, there's no reason why the Bobcats shouldn't continue to use this lineup.

At the beginning of the game, Chen Mo misplaced Boozer through the block.

Er Wuzai wanted to prove himself well today, but Chen Mo gave it to him in three or two steps. Boozer wanted to show his defensive enthusiasm and chased Chen Mo behind him.

Chen Mo ran to the basket, waved his right hand back, and the ball flew directly under Boozer's crotch, and there was a refraction to the right after the ball hit the ground. Rose couldn't cut the ball, but it went straight to Thomas.

Thomas was never polite when he had the opportunity to dunk, and the jumper pressed the spring tightest and then released it suddenly.

Thomas soared into the air, and with his legs spread out, he rode Boozer directly under the crotch.

"Boom!"

Thibodeau was scolding, the Bulls fans were a little confused, and all the rest of the people's emotions were ignited by the ball.

"Basketball !!!"

"Cool!" (To be continued.) )
